The Tourism Group has received a new scholarship from the London Duck Tours. The company runs sightseeing tours around London carrying over 140,000 tourists per year in its amphibious 'Duck' vehicles. The university's link with the company is via its Managing Director, John Bigos, who graduated from Surrey with an MBA in 2000. The London Duck Tours scholarship means that a postgraduate tourism student receives £3000 towards the cost of their studies. 

The scholarship has been awarded to Vishal Wadekar.
